I'm usually super-busy on those trips - I'm doing 8 hours at the trade show, usually a company dinner, then up to my room to write a blog post, and edit a video. But we'll see. Convention season's pretty much over for the rest of the year, but starting in May 2012, I'll likely be there once or twice a month for the summer.

I play poker, so I'm familiar with the Venetian from that as well. Next time I'm there, I'm going to try my hand at the $4/8 limit Omaha High-Low Split Eights Or Better (or Omaha/8) game.

Do you know of anyplace in Vegas that spreads PLO/8? Plenty of places (Bellagio, Venetian, Aria) spread PLO-hi, but it's hard to find PLO/8.
